What you have taught me




What you have taught me
Is much more than love.
What you've shown me
Goes beyond and above
The standard of friendship
And the beauty of life.
You've taught me so much
That words can't describe.
You've shown me to relish
The words on a page.
You've taught me to value
What people say.
You taught me to never
Construe a lie
"Words are too precious
To throw them aside"
Through your eyes,
I've seen only beauty.
You've reminded me how
To show the real me.
Without you, my life
Would not be as full.
I'm so glad you're a friend-
You make my life whole.
